As seen at the end of Section 16.10, a deficiency in vitamin D can cause a bonesoftening disease called rickets, so many foods,
including milk and cereals, are fortified with vitamin D. Our bodies synthesize vitamin D when our skin is exposed to sunlight,
but the lack of outdoor exercise by today's children, in conjunction with regular use of sunscreen, may be contributing to a rise
in the disease. The amount of vitamin D3 in fortified foods and fish can be measured by UV-Vis spectrometry. (J. Agric. Food
Chem. 2009, 57, 2135-2146.) Using Woodward-Fieser rules, estimate the expected Amax for vitamin D3:
HO..

H CH3
Select the number of each feature present in vitamin D3.
Base value (conjugated diene) = 217 nm
Number of additional double bonds:
Number of auxochromic alkyl groups:
Number of exocyclic double bonds:
Number of homoannular dienes:
Estimated Amax=

- Digitalis is a preparation made from the dried seeds and leaves of the purple foxglove, Digitalis purpurea, a plant native to southern and central Europe and cultivated in the United States.

In still larger doses, it is a deadly poison. Solutions of nicotine in water are used as insecticides.
